Businesses in Brighton and Hove

Brighton and Hove is a hot bed of independent organisations selling an extensive range of Fair Trade goods from all over the world.

In Brighton and Hove we believe that a Fair Trade town needs to incubate, develop, nurture and acknowledge the role of dedicated Fair Trade Organisations, whether these are shops, wholesalers or internet stores based here.

The following organizations are registered in Brighton and Hove and (unless they are very, very small) the majority of income is through the trade in Fair Trade products. For Fair Trade products we recognize products from FLO registered groups, WFTO registered groups or members of WFTO registered national networks.

Believe You Can

They provide a variety of services, in Education and the Workplace, all with the end goal of enablement and facilitating independent learning.

HiSbe

HISBE stands for How It Should Be. We’re not a health food shop. We’re not an exclusively vegan or vegetarian food shop. We’re a regular supermarket – operating how it should be. And we want to transform the food industry by challenging the way big supermarkets do business.

Infinity Foods

Over the years, in line with the increasing demand for natural and organic wholefoods, Infinity Foods has in turn grown and evolved. What began as a small shop in 1971 is today a thriving store, brimming with an extensive range of vegetarian products – from cupboard essentials to freshly baked bread and seasonal fruit and vegetables.

Love that stuff

U.K’s largest Fair Trade shop with handloomed clothing, jewellery, gifts and things for the home from 41 producer groups from around the developing world. Many ranges have design input from Italian, Spanish and U.K. fashion designers.

The Fair Shop

We buy fashion that is not only stunning in its design but is careful about its impact on the planet. We sell products that create livelihoods for people within their own communities while creating a gift, accessory or piece of clothing that can be treasured forever.

Zaytoun

Zaytoun’s aim is to delight our customers with premium quality products that are fairly traded, organically grown and sourced from small-scale farmers while supporting the farming communities through trade rather than aid.
